What I meant was, RATHER THAN CRASHING, ASSP should test for any such 
condition that might OTHERWISE cause a crash, capture that the cause was 
because of a LARGE difference/change of time, and gracefully shutdown 
until the problem is resolved.

I am not a programmer, so cannot speak to whether or not such a 
condition WILL cause ASSP to crash - all I was commenting on was IF that 
was the case.

I stand solid behind my original comment that servers most definitely 
should NEVER have their clocks changing time by matters of minutes (this 
was NOT a matter of a few seconds), and indeed, their clocks should 
ALWAYS be kept STRICTLY in sync via ntp...

Feel free to disagree all you want...
